Your first question is this:
It's Black's move. Which of these moves should he choose? Ng8-f6
g7-g6 f7-f6
Nb8-c6
|
|
Next question: White's just moved his Bishop out! What should Black play now? g7-g6
Ng8-f6 Bf8-c5
d7-d5
|
|
Congratulations! You've avoided checkmate! White's just moved his Queen back to f3. Look VERY CAREFULLY at what he's trying to do before choosing your move. Nc6-d4
Ng8-f6 Bf8-c5
Bf8-g7
|
|
Bc8xg4
Nf6xe4 Nc6-d4
With a machine gun
|
|
White, as expected has moved his Queen - to e3. Can you find a really cool move for Black here? Nf6xg4
Bf8-c5 d7-d5
Nd4xc2+
|
|
OK Buster, which of these moves is best? Nf6xe4
Bf8-c5 Nd4-f3+
Nd4xc2+
|
|
Yes, a free pawn is always worth having. Now White's foolishly moved his Pawn from f2 to f3. It's time to move in for the kill! But how? Nd4xf3+
Ne4-g3 Ne4-f2
Qd8-h4+
|
|
White had no choice that time - moving the King to f1 was the only way to get out of check. It's over to you for the winning move. Qh4-h3+
Qh4-f2+ Ne4-d2+
Ne4-g3+
|
|
Yes, it's CHECKMATE! The KISS OF DEATH! The Knight on e4 is DEFENDING the Queen on f2! So now you know how to stop SCHOLAR'S MATE!

g7-g6
Nb8-c6 Ng8-f6

|
|
What about this position? Is g7-g6 a good idea here? Of course it is Don't be silly

|
And is g7-g6 a really terrific idea in this position? Of course it is Don't be silly

|
What do you think about Nb8-c6 for Black in this position? A really good move! A really dumb move!
